Achterflaptekst:

What is Wicca? How is it practiced? What do Wiccans worship? 

Wicca is one of the fastest-growing religious movements in the world, yet with its rise has come a torrent of misconceptions, misunderstandings, and untruths about what Wiccans do and believe. Wicca Demystified alleviates all confusion by offering a clear guide for everyone curious about this much talked-about religion—whether you are considering becoming Wiccan or a family member, friend, or colleague of someone who is Wiccan. Wiccan High Priest Bryan Lankford explains the background, beliefs, and practices of Wicca in two accessible sections—one focusing on a basic understanding and one full of answers to deeper questions. The comprehensive topics he covers include:

• Why Wiccans worship a Goddess as well as a God
• Witch stereotypes and nasty rumors about Wiccans 
• Wiccan holidays and how they are celebrated
• The roles of nature and magick within the Wiccan faith 
• How Wiccans view birth, death, and the meaning of life 
• Ethics from a Wiccan perspective

Wicca Demystified goes beyond the simple mechanics of Wiccan worship to provide a glimpse into the heart and soul of the religion. 

“My goal is to make this book your eyes with which to glimpse the Wiccan world. I will share with you not only the form of Wicca, but also glimpses into its soul where you can, if only briefly, see the world as a Wiccan does and, through that, possibly understand Wicca.” — from the introduction. 

Bryan Lankford is a leading Wiccan practitioner in the Dallas Pagan community. He lectures extensively about Wicca at colleges, universities, and private functions throughout Texas, particularly in interfaith contexts. He is often interviewed by the media and has been a guest on both secular and religious radio programs, answering questions about Wicca. He lives in  Mesquite, Texas, with his wife and two children.
